Recorded by his quartet in a single session in 1964, A Love Supreme
is widely considered John Coltrane's magnum opus and one of the
greatest jazz albums of all time.
In Beyond A Love Supreme, Tony Whyton explores both the musical
complexities of A Love Supreme and the album's seminal importance
in jazz history. Marking Coltrane's transition from the bebop and
hard bop of his earlier recordings to the free jazz style perfected
throughout the rest of his career, the album also embodies the deep
spirituality that characterized the final years of his life. The
titles of the four part suite--"Acknowledgment," "Resolution,"
"Pursuance," and "Psalm"--along with the poem Coltrane composed for
inclusion in the liner notes, which he "recites" instrumentally in
"Psalm," reflect the religious aspect of the album, a quality that
contributes to its mystique and symbolic importance within the
canon of major jazz recordings. But Whyton also shows how A Love
Supreme challenges many of the traditional, unreflective
assumptions that permeate jazz culture--the binary oppositions
between improvisation and composition, black music and white music,
live performance and studio recording. He critically examines many
of the mythologizing narratives about how the album was conceived
and recorded and about what it signifies in terms of the trajectory
of Coltrane's personal life. Sifting through the criticism of late
Coltrane, Whyton suggests ways of listening to these recordings
that go beyond the conventional ideologies of mainstream jazz
practice and open the music to a wider range of responses.
Filled with fresh insights into one of the most influential
recordings in jazz history, Beyond A Love Supreme is an
indispensable resource for jazz scholars, jazz musicians, and fans
and aficionados at all levels.
